A cassette system capable of a germicidal treatment of highly opaque liquids, featuring a filter, which prevents wavelengths above the UV-C spectrum reaching the liquid being treated, one or more spiral-shaped tubes extending from an inlet end to an outlet end creating a fluidic pathway, and one or more light sources illuminating the one or more spiral-shaped tubes, wherein the one or more light sources emit light in a wavelength range between 180-300 nm.

A radiation treatment unit is provided. The radiation treatment unit includes a pipe sub-system that includes a helically-coiled pipe for passing therethrough a fluid to be treated and defining therein a cylindrical cavity. The radiation treatment unit also includes at least one radiation sub-system configured to generate radiation and disposed so as to expose the pipe sub-system to the radiation. The pipe is provided with a spinner that includes smoothly twisting spinning surfaces spanning between ends thereof.

A liquid treatment device includes a base with a power source, a UV-LED module for providing UV-B or UV-C light to liquid, an LED for providing visible light, and a processor for selectively powering the UV-LED module and the LED, and having a UV transmissive material above the UV-LED module for allowing the UV-B or UV-C band light from the UV-LED module to be transmitted from the base housing, and a liquid storage housing removably coupled to the base housing with a storage portion configured to hold liquid and having a bottom portion comprising a UV transmissive material for allowing the UV-B or UV-C band light from the UV-LED module to be transmitted into the liquid, and an output coupled for restricting outflow of the liquid from the storage portion.

The invention relates to an electromagnetic wave irradiation reactor (fixed, mobile or portable) suitable for the physical, dynamic, continuous conditioning of materials having the ability to absorb electromagnetic radiation, which need to be treated through electromagnetic irradiation, without coming into contact with the electromagnetic source. In particular, this invention aims to treat those materials which tend to reflect such radiations, which are translucent or difficult to penetrate to irradiation or simply dirty. The invention mainly exploits the postulates of Lambert, and Stefan-Boltzmann, that is, the physical assumptions of the transmission of electromagnetic energy by radiation and in particular the angle, concentration and proximity of the emission of energy between emitter and receiver (which varies with the square of the distance) and the intensity of the emission (which varies with the 4th power of the temperature).

This application is directed to systems and methods of creating sterilized powdered food product. Specific examples regarding breast milk are described whereby the milk is powderized and placed into a vat before it is passed along to a sterilization chamber in which it is fluidized and sterilized by UV-C light. Once powdered food product has been sufficiently sterilized, it can be loaded into syringes for distribution. Embodiments of the inventive subject matter are designed to maintain nutritional value of the powdered food at levels that were not previously possible, opening new opportunities for storing and distribution of, e.g., donor breast milk.
